I highly doubt Vasik will be interested in discussing the particulars of why his nps appears to be manipulated, etc. I am, however, more curious than anything. I have little doubt that his work is not genuine in its final form. If I had to speculate further, I would say its origins probably have more in common with Crafty than anything else (e.g., base ideas from -- not clone of course.) I think a lot of the .EXE size is made up from bitboards precomputed and pattern recognition bitboards for its knowledge. As we have all seen stated earlier, most programs have ideas from others in them and it's clear Rybka has some first class chess knowledge and that coupled with a good search has given it a possible first place among the micros.
